Re: not coping

I apparently have a bad case of biliary colic but without gallstones which is what normally causes it. Dont really have much knowledge on it and when i asked the dr he just said it was serious and gave me strong antibiotics ans said hope it helps then goes and sees another patient! 🤷‍♀️ i i dont even kbow what it means

Pops beena real draining handful the last week and because i cant escape its making it worse @Snowie @Sans911

Re: not coping

Haven't really heard of it @outlander I know it has to do with your gall bladder but thats about it.

Perhaps using google might give you some answers or the doctor on Wednesday will.

Sorry to hear your Pop has been difficult hon. It must be a lot to handle altogether, especially since you haven't been well at all. Is there anyone else that can help you with your Pop as you go through all of this?

Re: not coping

Hi @outlander we had that but with the gallstones and it was so painful in the end we had our gall bladder removed.

Basically biliary colic is when the bile duct between the gall bladder and small intestine is blocked either by gallstones or swelling often from infection.

Re: not coping

And it makes the bile duct spasm, which is the colic side of things. 😕 I had this along with gallstones. It was horrid. You're very young to have this @outlander.

Life continues to throw lots of challenges at you doesn't it?

Re: not coping

@Sans911 we had this when we were 20 and our gall bladder removed when we were 22

Re: not coping

Yes life does have a way of throwing things at me 😖 @Sans911 the ambos were heaps judgemental when i went there on Monday, the drs and nurses were good though but inconclusive tests meant i got sent home to be cared for by gp.

Its so painful, its been there for a week already. The nasty dr said if i go to emergency tell them i have biliary colic. He didn't say if i was suppose to go or what and Just kept trying to shove me out the door and basically see another dr.
